Hi there!
Guess i understand how u felt!
Try musical toys.. those with soft lullaby type. Placed it near ur baby esp when she or he is about to slp..
Babies are more inclined to music when they are much younger and esp those with movement.. this things will get their attention and eventually they be mesmerized by it and soon forgets the construction noise..
If u are a stay home mum.. ur VOICE is the BEST!! babies love it more than other things in the whole wide world!
Create the right atmosphere just between u and ur baby.. whisper soft lulaby.. and hopefully ur baby be gone in the dream world in no time! Hope it works!
Mommy of one!
